Fancam Assembly

Mr. Ben … Pedro Pascal

James: Okay students is St. Lawrence High School, welcome to your assembly about student technology use. [students booing] Settled down, all right? Here to give the presentation, please welcome your favorite teacher Mr. Ben. [students cheering]

Bowen: Mr. Ben, he has rizz.

Mr. Ben: Thank you, I think. Okay, let’s start. First rule do not access inappropriate content online. And do not bully on social media.

Ego: Come on, girl, eat it up.

Mr. Ben: Thank you. I think. And here’s a new rule. As of today, do not make fancams of school staff such as this.

[TikTok video of Mr. Ben playing on screen]

Bowen: No, skinny legend, why are you doing this?

Mr. Ben: Because you have made thousands of fancams of me and I’m not sure what they mean, but I know it has to stop.

Sarah: But we make them because you’re our beloved and you have us in a chokehold.

Mr. Ben: Okay, don’t say that. I just don’t understand why do you make sparkly fast romantic montages of me every single day? Like this?

[TikTok video of Mr. Ben playing on screen]

Devon: I mean, we don’t make them every day.

Bowen: Yeah, just on the days you send us or give us life.

Mr. Ben: What does that mean?

Ego: Don’t worry. It just means your foot is always on our necks. See?

[TikTok video of Mr. Ben playing on screen]

Mr. Ben: Is that is that me right now? How did you make that so fast? And how did you take over access to the monitor?

Devon: Mr. Ben, why are you so mad? You’re in your assembly era?

Mr. Ben: I’m not mad. I’m confused. Is “the way I ate this up” a compliment because it was nom nom delish and had you gagged?

Ego: Exactly, we love you down, Mr. Ben?

Sarah: You’re so father, period.

Mr. Ben: Okay, see but if fancams are- If fan- If okay. If fan cams are because I’m father then why did you make thin cams of Lady lunch Polina?

Bowen: Because Paulina is mother.

[TikTok video of Polina playing on screen]

Polina: Kids on phone, too much grow up wrong.

Mr. Ben: Guys, I’m trying to understand the fan cams for good or bad. Did you make a Fan Cam of lunch lady Polina to make fun of her?

Bowen: No, we made it because she ate us up and left no crumbs.

Mr. Ben: Left no crumbs? Okay, that’s it. Fancams are officially banned from school.

Students: No.

Devon: Well, Mr. Ben, we thought you were different, but you’re just like everyone else. Mid.

Mr. Ben: I’m sorry. I want to be a cool teacher. I know I’m your bias and then I always munch on it. But I just don’t get it. Why does your generation have to make everyone a celebrity? Why do you film everything? Why?

Bowen: Fine? You really want to know? It’s because COVID.

Mr. Ben: What? What do you mean?

Sarah: Because three years, COVID made us online forever.

Ego: Because COVID locked us down when we were 11, and now we’re 14, so now we have to make you daddy.

Bowen: Because mommy works remotely all day and doesn’t have time to eat it up no crumbs left. So we made you daddy and Ms. Jenny mommy.

Mr. Ben: What? Why is Ms. Jenny mommy?

Ms. Jenny: Guys. We told you, there is nothing going on between me and Mr. Ben.

Devon: Oh really? That explain this.

[TikTok video of Mr. Ben and Ms. Jenny playing on screen]

Mr. Ben: Honey, they’d been through so much. Let’s just tell them the truth. Ms. Jenny and I were in love.

[students teasing them]

Ms. Jenny: Fine, it’s true. He’s Daddy. I’m Mommy. And we’re all a happy family. No crumbs left.

Students: Yayy!

Trace: Excited to be here. Thanks.

Danny: Thrilled to be on board. Whoo!

Stephen: And thanks for coming in last minute, Danny. Our last actor Frank quit due to creative differences. And because I slept with his wife.

Marcello: Argh, actors.

Stephen: I know. So Trace, you’ll be playing Ken, a former US national fighting champ.

Trace: I’m totally in my element. I served for years.

Stephen: And Danny you are a martial artist seeking true strength, Ryu.

Danny: Whoo, love.

Stephen: All right, well, for this first take, let’s just get both of you recording efforts. Taking blows, landing hits, that kind of thing.

Marcello: I’m rolling.

Stephen: And action.

Trace: Uh, ugh, ah, hah, hai-yah, urghh.

Stephen: Yes, that’s great. Danny, let’s get the same from you.

Danny: Okay. Whoo! Wohoo! Ah-woo! Yay! Whoo!

Stephen: Let’s cut. Let’s cut.

Danny: That was really fun. Thanks for letting me play.

Stephen: Yeah, so I guess we were looking for more grunts, you know? You’re fighting, you’re in pain.

Danny: Oh, I see. [looking at Trace] So maybe do it like you’re fighting or you’re in pain.

Trace: Okay, got it. Got it. Got it.

Stephen: No, no, Trace. You don’t need to change what you were doing. But Danny, maybe it’s more aggressive, animalistic, that kind of thing.

Danny: Hmm, yes, Chef.

Stephen: All right. And Action.

Trace: Ugh!

Danny: Whoo!

Trace: Uh!

Danny: Aru!

Trace: Huuuh!

Danny: Woof!

Trace: Wouf!

Danny: Wouf! Wouf!

Trace: Hoof! Hoof!

Danny: Meow!

Trace: Oink!

Danny: Snake!

Trace: Ka-ka-doo-doo.

Stephen: Cut. Okay, no. Trace, don’t match what he’s doing.

Trace: Oh, okay. He’s just an amazing scene partner. So.

Danny: Thank you. And I was just taking your note. You said to do animals.

Stephen: Yeah, but I said a bunch of stuff before that.

Danny: Well, I have auditory recency bias. So you can’t say that to me. I could sue you.

Trace: Okay guys, guys. Please don’t fight. It reminds me of the war and of fighting.

Stephen: You know what? Let’s just move on. We need to get these quick verbal phrases to say during the fight. And action.

Trace: Take that.

Danny: Hey, I like your necklace.

Trace: What? This old thing? Thanks.

Danny: See? Kindness wins.

Trace: You’re right. Let’s not fight it.

Danny: Yay, I forgot to ask. What are your pronouns?

Trace: He/him.

Stephen: Cut.

Danny: I’ll tell him. Ken is he/they.

Stephen: Guys? We can’t use any of that.

Danny: Aww, that makes me sad. Is there a reason?

Stephen: Yes, it’s because no one sounds like that when they fight.

Trace: That’s actually not true. I mean, you remind me exactly as someone I served with in Iraq.

Danny: Oh, you went to Iraq? Where did you stay?

Stephen: Dan! Didn’t want to say this, but you just need to play a more hetero.

Danny: Okay, you should have just said that in the beginning. I got it. Let’s roll. Hey, brother, Ken, biceps looking huge.

Trace: You looking pretty swole yourself, bro.

Danny: I saw you changing in the locker room, but I was completely soft my dude.

Trace: How the hell do you know my name?

Danny: Hey, easy brother. My wife’s on this app.

Stephen: What are you talking about? This isn’t an app.

Danny: It’s a video game? Well, then brother. I’ll race you to the GameCube brother.

Stephen: What? Danny, Dan. Answered me honestly. Do you really think you would sound like this in a real fight?

Danny: Yes, I would brother.

[Frank walks in]

Stephen: Oh my god. Frank. What are you doing here?

Frank: I told you I’ll kill you for sleeping with my wife.

Trace: No. I’ll protect you. [pushing Frank] Ugh!

Danny: [hitting Frank] Whoo!

Trace: [slapping Frank] Ugh!

Danny: [pushing Frank] Meow!

Male voice: KO!

Stephen: Well, I’ll be damned. You two just saved my life.

Kenan: Hey, man, you know who you sound like? You sound like the Forrest Gump.

Marcello: Oh yeah. That guy who can’t find Yanni, you know? His brain don’t reach his leg, so he can run forever.

Kenan: So he can run forever.

James: Hey, I just want to thank you fellows for all your help today. Do you mind if I give you a little something for your trouble?

Kenan: Oh, yes. It’s okay, we accept tips, papi.

James: I’ll do you one better than a tip. How about a prayer? Here we go. Lord, please protect these wonderful Dominican gentlemen from the harsh rays of the sun Lord.

Marcello: That’s nice.

Kenan: I wanted the money.

James: Please, Lord, this morning, please put a cool fresh breeze in their hearts, Lord.

Marcello: That’s good.

Kenan: The money will be better.

James: And Lord, protect them from all evil in Jesus name. Amen.

Southwest Airlines Announcement

Male voice: At Southwest Airlines, we pride ourselves on a smooth flying experience.

Heidi: But over the holiday season, we messed up. Our system collapsed and thousands of fliers were left stranded. And you understandably screamed at us for days on end, even more than you usually do.

Michael: And sure, we lost $800 million in revenue and are being investigated by the FAA.

Devon: Which is why this year we are dedicated to making things right with a better more modern Southwest experience.

Heidi: For starters, we are finally upgrading our entire communication system to 2008 Dell computers.

Devon: That’s right. We are saying bye-bye to those 2002 IBM ThinkPad laptops with a little red nipple in the middle.

Heidi: Also, no more missing baggage at baggage claim. Guaranteed.

Marcello: From here on out, all luggage will be sorted by color.

Mike: That makes it your responsibility, not ours.

Marcello: So if you’re going to Dallas, bring a red suitcase.

Mike: Don’t show up with a blue bag. Blue bags, go to Charlotte.

Michael: And make sure to get to the airport early to enjoy our new Southwest premier lounge located inside an active Starbucks. We just get there early and hold down two or three tables for y’all.

Devon: Southwest is also modernizing our entire air traffic control network.

Heidi: No more pen and paper. Our air traffic specialists will now be using our old IBM ThinkPad laptops with a little red nipple in the middle.

James: Now I get a proper flight schedule instead of finding out where I’m going 15 minutes before takeoff.

Punkie: And now, we’ve streamlining check in by not having one at all.

Andrew: We’re just trying to fill up the plane and go.

Punkie: “You showed your ticket at security, right? You’re good.”

Michael: We’re also upgrading our in flight staff strictly with people who used to work at Waffle House. So come at them if you want. These big bitches don’t play.

Heidi: Here at Southwest, mistakes you made, that’s on us. Mostly. Some of it’s on you.

Devon: Hey, man, let’s keep it real. You bought the ticket.

Heidi: Again, you bought a Southwest ticket. You obviously don’t respect yourself, so why should we?

Punkie: Thank you.

Michael: Thank you.

Heidi: Thank you.

All: For flying Southwest.

James: Welcome aboard. [the pilot opens his Aviators. He doesn’t have one eye.]

Male voice: Southwest Airlines. If it’s that important to you, just walk.

Jason… Michael B. Jordan

[Starts with show intro]

Tanya: Welcome back to Good morning today. Later in the hour, we’ll be talking pitbulls. Who are they? What do they want from us and how are they so yoked?

Richard: But first, it’s time for America’s favorite segment, Cuisine with Francine.

Tanya: Can I just say I am so happy that Francine is back.

Richard: Yes, me too. As I’m sure most of our viewers know, Francine was gone yesterday because she got stuck on a runaway roller coaster going 150 miles an hour for 19 hours straight.

Tanya: But now she’s back better than ever and not the least bit face. Hi Francine.

[Cut to Francine. She has all her hair blown up and her mouth still open like air being blown to it.]

Francine: Hi Richard, hi Tanya. It’s great to be back. And I got some really exciting flavors to share with you all today.

Richard: Wow, Francine, you look nuts.

Tanya: Did you come here straight from the amusement park?

Francine: Sure did. Couldn’t be late to be back in the studio.

Tanya: Well, that’s great. Well, what’s on the menu today Francine.

Francine: Well, I hope you have your passports ready because today we’re off to Italia. Join me, will you?For a culture adventure that will have you say, “Mama mia.” Today we’re eating buffalo mozzarella, we’re gonna be eating crostini, cacio e pepe, and of course, a glass of chianti. Salute. [when she drinks the wine, the wine pours out of her mouth as it’s open] Now, that’s good vino.

Richard: Looks like that hit the spot.

Tanya: At least some part that got in.

Francine: Mmm, this is a complex wine. Almost as many twists and turns as my roller coaster ride from hell.

Richard: What?

Tanya: I think she I think she compared the wine to all those loop de loops. You know we actually have some video of that.

[cut to a video of a roller coaster running around very fast]

Richard: Yeah. Must be hard to watch, huh Francine?

Francine: What was that? I’m having trouble hearing you over the crispy crunch of my crispy crunchy crostini.

Richard: Alright, well, thanks Francine. Now it’s time for the weather with our very own Jason Burress.

[Cut to Jason. He also has all his hair blown up and his mouth still open like air being blown to it.]

Jason: Hi, guys. Coming in, and it looks like a doozy, all right.

Tanya: Obviously, we forgot to mention that Jason was also trapped on a roller coaster.

Richard: I actually think we have a picture of that.

[There’s a picture of Francine and Jason on a roller coaster]

Tanya: So how’s the weather looking, Jason?

Jason: It’s not good at all. We have snow coming in from the east. Uh huh. We have snow coming in from the west. Snow from the top, yeah. And snow from the bottom. Look, I’m dizzy as hell from the roller coaster ride.

Richard: Well, wait a minute. Something sure smells good.

Tanya: Oh, what are you cooking over there, Francine?

Francine: Just some minestrone soup. Be careful, it’s hot. You got to blow on it.

Jason: Umm, that looks dilicioso. [Francine pours the soup in Jason’s mouth. It gets spilled outside because his mouth is open.] Oh, dilicioso. Yes. It’s great. Dilicioso.

Tanya: Well, I guess you must be pretty hungry after that crazy ride.

Francine: Yes, the only thing we had to eat were the bugs that flew into our open mouths.

Jason: Bugs like bumblebees, cicadas, and one dog sized bat.

Francine: Now, that’s a spicy meatball. Would you care for some spaghetti, Jason?

Jason: Oh yes please. [Francine pouts the spaghetti in Jason’s mouth. It gets spilled outside because his mouth is open.]

Tanya: Oh my god, you guys are so cute together.

Richard: Of course. You probably got real close during your time together on the roller coaster.

Tanya: Wait, what are they doing now?

Richard: But think they’re doing a little lady in the tramp thing. Oh, so romantic.

Tanya: I’m sorry. Francine. Is there something under your shirt?

Francine: Oh, I lmost forgot. Say hello to my little friend. [It’s a bird that stabbed its head into Francine’s stomach]

Richard: Is that a bird kicking his little legs?

Jason: Yes, he flew straight into her stomach at 200 miles an hour.

Francine: The doctors say if I pull it out, both of us will die. Now, back to you guys.

Tanya: All right, coming up next, our exclusive interview with a teenage boy who operated the roller coaster, and why he did nothing to stop it.

Andrew: Two reasons. Too dumb and too high.
